Install SubWallet

Download and install SubWallet from its official site. Set up a new wallet or import an existing seed phrase, and back up your recovery phrase securely.

Fund the wallet with SDL

Buy SDL on an exchange (Coinbase, Kraken, Binance) and withdraw to your SubWallet address. Double-check the network before sending.
